Lilly let out a shout as she saw the titan appear in front of her, she began to organise a plan in her mind but that disappeared with the titan. She looked around in confusion for a moment, then she quickly rushed to find her officer.

"My, uh, cold must be acting up again."

I finally get hold of myself enough to speak.


She backs away awkwardly at the mention of a cold.

Kyle pats her shoulder.
"I'm sure that he's... in a better place now."

"But...But I'll never see him again!"

Erik maneuvers into a position to attack the Titan.

Result: 6

You crash into a tree, and fall to the ground in a heap.

"That was the one." Tobias said solemnly. "The one that killed all four of them."

"I'm sorry" she looked around "Do you know where it went sir?"

Well...At least I hid it well.

I suppose my only choice is to Assess the situation! I am sure that will help. Somehow.

Result: 4

Reeling and overcome with your feelings, you can't think straight. Your face reddens further, causing Jeanne to ask if something's the matter.

Kyle spends a while thinking.
"As cheesy as it sounds, if you remember him he'll always be with you in your heart."

She opened her mouth as if to say something, then closed it again.

Erik attempts to get into position once again, cursing.

You decide not to heed Alex's advice, and again attempt another attack.

Result:6

You're so close, but your aim doesn't line up for the kill.

John begins to squirm and starts yelling to you. "Whatever you do, make sure my brother makes it out alive! Don't worry about me- I'd rather die than live with his blood on my hands!"

Jacob, the younger brother screamed back at John. "Stop trying to be a hero! We're going to get out of this together, damn it!"

The Titan is growing increasingly hungry, and is still trying to decide which one to eat first. But time is of the essence, and it's slowly running out.

Oh...

After a minute passes by because Starn can't think of anything to say he sorta wanders off.

You may see Michael awkwardly attempting to make conversation with Jeanne.

There are no Titans nearby.

Kyle sighs and scratches the back of his head.
"Eh... I'm no good at this.... forget I said anything."
Kyle stands up.

Gah! If I can't even keep my cool here, how will I ever survive a Titan attack?

"I....I....I forgot to test fire the cannon! I am so embarrassed that I am blushing! How will I ever know if all the work I put into it means anything if I don't test fire it!?"

....Come to think of it, is anyone watching this? Because I might be required to shoot them later.

((Hello everyone, I've just been reading this and it's honestly been very entertaining, but I'm a little confused as to where the Scout HQ is. I'm guessing that it's outside of Wall Maria (which I believe is the outer-most wall) but in the first episode of AoT they try to (unsuccessfully) kill a single titan so they can set up the first base outside the walls. I'm guessing that the Scout HQ counts as a base so in this universe did they manage to kill the titan and make the base? Did the titan simply never exist and they just went ahead and built the base? Is this supposed to be after the events of Shiganshima's fall but it didn't fall and they eventually managed to build the base? Does the Scout HQ for some reason not count as a base?

Why is the HQ outside of the walls anyway? A regular base outside would make sense for obvious reasons, but a HQ? There are many problems with having the HQ outside:
  • The commander would have to go in-between a horde of titans every time he went to get new recruits. Based on his reaction at losing some of them, it's a wonder he hasn't gone insane from losing so many kids.
  • Any new recruits would have to make their way to the HQ, which as we've seen tends to promote high mortality rates (eaten, suicide, crashed into a tree) and above-average (for Scouts, even) levels of PTSD/outright insanity.
  • Supplies (probably food and water, definitely gas, blades, medicine, etc.) would have to be sent from the walls many, many kilometres out to the HQ through Titan-infested territory, all while carrying heavy supplies which would hamper their ability to move.
  • Assuming the HQ isn't the only outside base - or if it is, that it's the only Scout base - it would be difficult to coordinate movements between Scouts of different bases, seeing as how all messages will have to travel far through Titan territory. This goes the same for relaying messages to people within the wall.
  • Simply moving around outside of the base would be a risk because of the Titans.
  • > Assuming the base is big and obvious enough to attract Titans.
    • Unless the Titans are routinely killed off, they would make it extremely difficult to get inside the HQ over the walls (tunnels could be a thing) and the sound of so many titans surrounding the walls would heavily demoralise the soldiers inside.
    • The Scouts probably couldn't make the walls as big as the main Walls, which may allow the surrounding Titans to damage it. Repairing the walls would require the titans to be killed off (cannonfire requires ammunition and is loud enough to attract titans, and manual killing is dangerous and also requires gas and blades), wall-repair materials to be available, a large chunk of time would need to be reserved to repair it, and it could be risky even with all the requirements met:

      A WILD ABERRANT APPEARS!
      WILD ABERRANT USES [RUN UP AND CHOMP A GUY BEFORE HE CAN REACT]!
      IT'S SUPER EFFECTIVE!
      RANDOM SCOUT SCOUT-WE'VE-ACTUALLY-GROWN-TO-CARE-ABOUT HAS FAINTED!

I reaaally ought to play as a Tactician JUST to point out all these logistical flaws to the commander.

Spoiler: Theorycrafting (click to show/hide)

How big is the HQ btw? How tall are the walls? I doubt they're as big as the Walls. If they were only built to prevent access to the tallest normal Titans - the 15-metre class - then they probably won't be able to stop the Über Titan (30 metres was it?) from making its way inside and slaughtering everyone, or just breaking a hole in the wall a-la the Colossal Titan.

One more question, instead pertaining to the rulebook: what is Hold?))

All fanfics are heresy, each and every one, especially the shipping ones. Those are by far the worst.
